[Mikey P]

Prelude to a Xippering..

After shot

 

[Mikey P]

Coming..

 

[thecleaningdude]

Why are the mutually exclusive? You can't pre-scrub as a part of your VLM program?

But I might be misunderstanding you....

 

[Mikey P]

You are..

 

[thecleaningdude]

Prescrub or VLM?

 

[Mikey P]

Other than the chemistry, whats the diff?

 

[thecleaningdude]

Nothing. As you know, the next step is where the intrigue begins....

 

[encapman]

Scrubbing (agitation) is good.
It's the muscle in the cleaning pie.

 

[Blue Monarch]

What pad is that?

 

[Mikey P]

3M

If you prescrub with vlm and then use the zipper all you are doing is the OLD "Shampoo and Rinse" method.

If you prescrub with vlm and then use the zipper all you are doing is the OLD "Shampoo and Rinse" method.

And your point is?

 

[Mikey P]

If the jug of cleaning agent that you pre scrub with says Traffic Lane cleaner instead of Shampoo, does that make the scrub and rinse process show how different?

Did you borrow that 175 from Cole?

 

[Jack Zipper Zerkie]

Back in the early 80,s That's how I started. I used a 175 with a tank with extraction chemicals mixed in the tank the extracted with water in my Hoover that I still have today made in the USA, looks like R2 D2 robot. The good old days. jz

 

[Mikey P]

Did you borrow that 175 from Cole?

Thats my baby, bought it in near perfect condition for a used tool shop in Scruz.

Advance SD17. The 2x4 shaped handle makes it a dream to operate.


Bummed they dont offer it anymore.

 

[Jimmy L]

EnCrapman I expect to see your organ grinder monkey........Shorty..... to be here soon.

 

[hogjowl]

I think it's his anniversary or something this weekend.

 

[Jimmy L]

I hope he had rIcKy'S approval to take some time off from being his shill : )

Lacking wisdom and 40 years of carpet cleaning experience, I do everything the hard way. But dadgum it, my mommy loves me, so there!

Maybe in Atlanta I can teach a Masterhack Class, with vacuums, pre-scrubbery from A-Z and various painfully slow methods of soil recovery.

Or not. There are so many mistakes to make, so little time..

 

[Mikey P]

tell ya what


spent five hours today maintaining truckmounts


I have a condition that causes me to get real noxious when on my back and focusing on things... Like belt changes, wrenching etc..



Actually had to vomit this time it got so bad..



a portable sounds real good right now....lol

 

[Old Coastie]

Hey hey! I have a fantastic, unbelievable deal in an Aqua-clean for you.


Unless you read the other thread. Uh, don't read the other thread.

 

[encapman]

Jimmy you sure are a kind and friendly guy.

 

[hogjowl]

It's not wearing underwear that does it to him.

 

[Mikey P]

too much dairy is my guess

 

[Old Coastie]

Yep, you could be right for once. Them rusty zippers can chafe, so I've heard. Had one shipmate who was in a hurry one cold morning and zipped his youknowwhat up, made him scream like a whistle.

Has nothing to do with carpet cleaning but a good yarn when you get all the details.

Besides, I use Releasit all the time and Rick and Shorty have both helped me out. Reckon they'll both be by to deny it and who could blame 'em?

 

[thecleaningdude]

Back pain is the worst. I've been dealing with it myself since late 2013.

Put a reel in the van and you won't have a portable - you'll have a mobile cleaning station.

[hogjowl]

Chronic back pain is a bitch.

And now that our nanny state is limiting the use of pain medication, there's no chance of relief short of surgery.

And my doc says not to have surgery because it never stops at just one.

 

[Desk Jockey]

I remember when this was the norm..if you can call it that. All we've had in recent times has been a shell of his original self..PUSSY.
